About
Trollers Cove Cabin offers a unique wilderness lodging experience on Prince of Wales Island within the Tongass National Forest. This 14x14-ft pan-abode style cedar log cabin sits in a protected cove surrounded by flat coastal terrain and old-growth forest of cedar, spruce, and hemlock. The cabin sleeps up to four people on wooden bunkbeds and a sleeping loft, and is equipped with a table, benches, wood stove, cooking counter, and basic supplies including an axe and splitting maul. The location provides exceptional opportunities for anglers, with bottom fishing and salmon trolling available off 20 Fathom Bank. The cove serves as anchorage for both commercial and pleasure boats, with a mooring buoy available on a first-come, first-served basis. Hunters can take advantage of extended bear seasons in spring and fall, and deer hunting from late summer through late fall. Primitive trails extend from the cabin to nearby lakes and waterfalls, though visitors should have strong navigation skills as trails are not formally designated. Access is by boat or floatplane, located 38 miles from Ketchikan and 21 air miles from Craig. The cabin has no running water or electricity. Visitors must bring sleeping bags, sleeping pads, cook stove and fuel, food, water treatment supplies, cooking gear, light sources, toilet paper, and garbage bags. Water can be obtained from the creek but must be treated. At low tide, a 50-foot tidal flat emerges, exposing rocks and boulders. Wildlife is abundant, including eagles, shorebirds, Sitka black-tailed deer, and black bears. Scenic Spiral Cove lies to the north.
Directions
